Why Calibra

Welcome to Calibra’s 360 degree feedback demo. This customizable survey tool and support
system was created by leadership development practitioners. 360 degree feedback helps organizations
drive high performance by providing leaders with timely, relevant information to help them
leverage their strengths and focus on development areas.

The personalized web page is your portal to manage and maintain surveys.
When you log in, you will see tasks to complete for your own assessments and tasks you have been asked to
complete by others.

Simple steps are outlined for you to complete as part of the 360 degree
feedback process. You'll complete a self-assessment, select and create raters,
notify raters and check response rates. You may also view your report and complete
an action plan based on the results of your survey.

You may customize the look and feel by adding your company logo.

360 degree feedback can be translated in any language.

We guarantee internet security by using SiteSafe™ by Network Solutions.

The 360 survey is based on the skills and behaviors needed in a specific role (e.g., leadership, management, sales, customer service). You can use your existing competency model, choose from Calibra’s competency and behavior library, or we can help you develop a customized model using critical incident interviews or a card sort exercise.

The progress bar highlights how far along in the survey you are. The "save and complete later" feature allows the rater to be interrupted in the middle of the survey process and not lose his responses.

The most powerful feature of the survey is the Dual Scale Difference™. The dual scale rating system reports current and needed frequencies of behaviors for each rater group. This generates a gap analysis that quickly shows strengths and areas needing improvement specific to the job.

Calibra’s 360 degree feedback tool allows you to select raters in
a drop-down menu once an employee list has been uploaded. In addition, participants can enter
rater emails directly into the system. Calibra can also load raters if desired. Maximums and minimums are established for each rater
group (e.g., manager, direct reports, and peers).

Raters are easily added or removed from the system at any time by clicking the add and remove links.

Raters are sent a notification email that they've been asked to rate a participant.

The goal of 360 degree feedback is to increase participants’ awareness of strengths and gaps to assist with ongoing development. Calibra’s 360 feedback report outlines actionable information in an easy-to read and interpret format. The reports present that information in three different ways:

Bar charts provide an overview for each competency in the customized model. The feedback is typically based on four different rater sources: self (S), manager (M), direct reports (D), peers and colleagues (P).

Each blue "title" represent a different
competency in the customized competency model.

The gray shaded area (on the colored bar graph) represents the difference between the “current” rating and the “needed” rating or the Dual Scale Difference™.

Charts and graphs are based on a five point frequency scale: never, rarely, sometimes, regularly, always. Participants also can choose “Not Applicable” when responding to survey questions.

Spider charts help visualize competency results by rater group. Rater groups often have different needs in terms of behavioral/developmental expectations for a 360 participant. This visual easily shows whether patterns emerge across rater groups (strengths to leverage or gaps to narrow) or whether there are differences in opinion. Spider charts are a great coaching tool to support development efforts.

The spider chart has two sections: a current competency score (blue) and needed competency score (yellow).

Each leg represents a different competency in the customized competency model.
